EPISODE 2
CHAPTER 10 : RUN TILL THE END (5)
SWISSSSS, Oooo!! It pierced through the skin of a 'One eyed Orc'!!? I thought the sword would be powerful but didn't expect it to be this powerful.I thought it would only leave a scratch but now the Orc is bleeding.
"ROAR" I think the orc got mad at me. He started waving his hands in every direction. So this is the attack pattern of a monster. Attacking without thinking. I slowly dodge it all.
I think I have to use more power to defeat it. [YOU HAVE USED SKILL 'ELECTRIC TOUCH'] the system popped in front of me again. So it will notify me every time I use a skill huh.
As soon as I used my skill the sword started changing it's color from yellow to orange and small flames started burning on my sword.
It is totally made as I planned!! I thought that metal having high electric resistance would be weak than other metals like filament in a bulb but it is a lot tougher and sharper than I expected.
I started swinging my burning sword "What the..??!!" Mitra was shocked seeing my sword skills. Even I was shocked when I was practicing with Happi. It was like I was using a sword for many years. I think it was the influence of the dream I had after that attack on my way home.
Anyway I dodged the attacks of the orc and slowly started fighting back. "Huff huff" even if I was the one attacking the Orc my stamina is still low.
Damn if I was powerful, if I was just a little bit powerful I could at least save my friends!!!
"!!!" suddenly the system popped in front of me ['ERROR' HAS BEEN OCCURRED] maan!! why do you have to surprise me even in this situation!!? And what is this error??
[ERROR]
[ERROR]
[ERROR]
The 'error' thing started popping again and again.
As I was looking at the stats window. "DSHUM" "AAAAHHHH" the orc punched me again and this time it even hurts more. blood started bleeding from my mouth and nose.
Damn at this rate I am gonna die before they can even escape. Just a little bit, I just have to hold on for just a little bit.
But I feel like my energy has increased much before the 'ERROR' thing that popped in front of me.
[YOU HAVE USED THE SKILL 'ELECTR.....'] [AN 'ERROR' HAS BEEN OCCURED] again this thing??

But I can still use my skills so I just increased the heat of my sword as it started turning blue.
This is the last chance, if I can defeat the Orc in two moves we all can go out of here. If I cannot defeat it then I don't think I can hold on much longer.
I looked at my friends and signed them to be ready to escape from this place. If I can save them I can die without regrets...... no except one regret.
I started charging towards the Orc. Raising my sword as high as I can I swinged horizontally with all my power in my hands. "!!!" a wave of fire combined with electricity came out of the sword BOOOM "!!!!" What the hell just happened?
Is it really m=the weak me? I started touching my body to feel that it is my body.
The Orc fell down far away from me??!! I looked at everyone, they were also more shocked than me.
So I defeated the Orc right?? I looked at the 'Orc Boss' to see what he would say.
"HEHEHAHAHA, YOU HAVE ENTERTAINED ME MORE THAN EXPECTED HUMAN, BUT IT'S A PITY THAT I HAVE TO KILL YOU" "!!!!" what the hell is he telling?? He told us that he would leave us if we defeated the opponent right??
"IF SOMEONE AS POWERFUL AS YOU WOULD GROW MORE POWERFUL IT WILL BE A THREAD FOR US." he said looking at me. Damn I should ave expected this. How did I even manage to win a never winning match??
"Everyone run away from here!!!" I shouted at them. Everyone started running towards the huge door.
"KILL ALL OF THEM!!" the Orc boss shou... no he roared.
BOOMMM!!! suddenly the huge door was busted open "!!!!! Now what!!" I shouted in terror.
"You managed to survive for this long huh? That's a good thing." I heard a familiar voice.
A man covered in light came towards us. "!!!! Jeeven!?" It was Jeevan. He smiled at me.
"You can rest now as I am here to take care of everything." saying that he moved towards the 'One Eyed Orcs' there were too many of them!!
"Nooo! it's too dangerous for you to fight alone!!" I shouted. ??? what the? I cannot even lift my leg??!! Guess this is my limit. I slowly sat on the ground.
"Hehehe so you are tired huh? Then just sit there and enjoy the show." saying that he moved towards the group of Orcs.

"So you all wanted to kill my friend huh? Now take the consequences for that thought." bright spear like things appeared around Jeevan. I think it was his magic. The spears were more like solidified light!!
"!!!!" the spears flew into the air and pierced through on orc each. The Orcs were dead??! The so called One Eyed Orc died in one shot??
"YOU ARROGANT HUMAN DOY YOU THINK YOU CAN LEAVE THIS PLACE WITH YOUR LIF....." AAAAAAAA Jeeven punched the Boss Orc with his bear fists?!!!!!
"Shut up and die." saying that seriously he punched the Boss Orc again. The Orc flew in the air and fell down quite far away from Jeevan.
"ROOOAARR" the boss Orc roared and started throwing fire balls at Jeevan.
"Now you are using magic huh? But it's no use." as Jeevan said that his body started glowing.
BOOM!! CRASHH!! "What the !!??" he disappeared for a moment and appeared in front of the Boss Orc and punched him again.
"You were acting all mighty and now you are dead after just three punches. That's what you can do?" the Orc is dead in three punches??!! That too a Magical Boss Orc!!!
The girl whom I met in the forest was powerful but Jeevan is on another level!!
"Is everyone all right? You all can rest now as the enemies are all defeated." Jeevan said looking at us.
Everyone started falling on the ground, everyone was exhausted.
Jeevan came towards me and sat beside me "Um.. It will take some time for the IAA team to come hear so you all can rest." He said to us.
"Maann! Thanks for saving us but how did you do that??!!" I asked him in surprise.
"That's not what is important now, how did you do that?!" he asked me pointing to the Orc I defeated a while ago.
"Um.. You can say I just got lucky, Hehe." I said to him dubbing my nose which was bleeding.
"To tell you the truth you will be the fifth person to defeat a 'One Eyed Orc' in a one vs one match." he said looking no examining the Orc I defeated carefully.
"Man I just told you I got lucky." I said to him again.
"That's not something someone lucky could do." Mitra said walking towards us.
"Oh come on, everyone knows that I am weak. You also know that I am fighting a monster for the first time you see." I said to them.
"That's what makes you more powerful than everyone else. Defeating a One Eyed Orc at a first try and fighting a monster for the first time on the top of that is too much." Mitra said that slowly sitting on the ground beside me.
BUSSSSS "Grasp!!!....What is that? Other monsters??" I was surprised by the sound.
"No it's our rescue team." Mitra said seeing towards te direction of the sound and slowly stood up.
"Let's go!!" Jeevan said pulling my hand to help me stand up.
"Is everyone all right? Sorry we are la....... Jeevan? What are you doing here?" a girl whom I assume as the rescue team leader ask Jeevan.
"Um... my friend was here so as I heard that they needed help I ran here." Jeevan said to her rubbing his hair.
"That means you cleared the [DOOR] that you were supposed to and came here faster that us....." she looked around the surroundings ".....and also cleared this [DOOR] which was abnormal!!" she said.
"Yes, Hehe." he said to her. As she heard yes from his mouth the leader caught her head.
Man!! so Jeevan was this powerful?? It's no wonder he was first in the rankings at our base.
I have to get stronger too. If not jeevan was here I would have died without saving my friends.
"Hey Rishi I have a question. What's the matter with this sword? How was it burning." Mitra asked me scratching his head.
"O that, my Arcane is an electric type you see, so this sword is made up of a metal which is a good resistor. So when I use my skill and pass electric through the rubber haft which has wires attached to the blade the blade heats. the more electric passes the more the sword gets heated resulting in change of color. It's like a filament of a bulb though I don't know the name of the materials used by an Arcane blacksmith." I explained it to both of them as they nodded.
BEEP BEEP "!!?? Now what??"........

When...will I see your jade-green eyes again?"
